The coffee break has become an American tradition.
It's like the siesta in Mexico, 
except the siesta doesn't leave cup ring stains on your desk.

The Final Word From
Treebranch

Most of us miss out on life's big prizes. The Pulitzer. The Nobel. Oscars. Tonys. Emmys. 
But we're all eligible for life's small pleasures. A pat on the back. A kiss behind the ear. 
A four-pound bass. A full moon. A great meal. A glorious sunset. Hot soup.
